The history
The winemaking history of Ronda can be traced back to the Roman Empire when the region was known as Acinipo, which means “land of grapes.” During the medieval period, the Moors also cultivated grapes and made wine.
The modern winemaking industry in Ronda began in the mid-19th century when a group of local farmers formed the Serrania Viticultural Society to improve the quality of the wines produced in the region. It brought in new grape varieties and modern winemaking techniques, and soon Ronda wines gained a reputation for their quality.
In the early 20th century, Ronda was hit hard by the phylloxera epidemic, which destroyed many of the vineyards in the region. It wasn't until the 1980s that winemaking in Ronda began to recover.
Today, Ronda is known for its unique terroir, which is characterised by high altitudes, steep slopes, and a variety of soils. Winemakers in Ronda focus on producing small quantities of high-quality wines, often using traditional techniques and indigenous grape varieties.
